It’ll get there eventually, don’t expect it to look good. It’s probably better if it stays that way.
Got a tip for us?

I'm sure it will. But it doesn't look absolutely gross after a month like some peoples.
I returned my SB for the 12 pro and got black. This will be the first time i haven’t used SB, but this black feels better and seems to fit better.
I noticed the same going from SB to black. It's also nice not having to worry about how it'll look down the road.
Loving the Bullstrap Sienna case more and more each day. Not sure how people that have bought this aren't using it as their daily driver case. But oh well - we all have our own preferences. Here are two pics of mine after about 6 weeks:
This may sound odd, but it is like my case shrunk. It used to be higher than the camera lenses, but now it is flush with them offering no protection at all. This is after 3-4 weeks of use.
This was my concern. I REALLY thought about buying this but I read about some durability issues in their cases for previous phones.
what the hell did you do?please don't rock that case in public, needs to go in the bin.
please don't rock that case in public, needs to go in the bin. 
It looks alright, no need for him to trash it
Coconut oil,sandpaper/magic erasers,etc are common techniques in the luxury leather handbag community. And I’ve seen them in these threads throughout the years. I won’t say how many times I’ve had to use sandpaper/magic erasers on my 2500.00+ handbags.
I hope you’re not cleaning the grime with leather wipes…..baby wipes work far better.
Curious what you mean by this, is that raised part around the camera now gone? Do you have pics of this?
I never even imagined this happening. I put a different case on the phone for a few days and when I put the Bullstrap back on it was like that. No more protection for those lenses.
Be that as it may, it obviously totally ruins these cases, yet despite all the photographic evidence that it's a debacle, people keep doing it.
It is still raised a bit, but not like it was when I first got it. I’m at work now, but can take pictures of it later.
There are a few reviews on YouTube. I was waiting for the preorder as well, but the consensus is, with time the natural leather loosens up and starts to fall off of the phone. I’m going to pass.
They just work better getting stains(especially Jean stains), grime and dirt off. You still need to use leather wipes to condition the leather.
I mean the horrible coating pretty much ruined these cases this year and mixed with the vast quality difference in the leather. These cases are pretty much a miss this year and their experiments are fun. Let people be creative.
After being somewhat disappointed with apples leather case this year/trying out a bull strap case for the first time and not liking the fit, I discovered this company. Did some research and have seen nothing but good reviews on the brand and the quality of their leather goods. Additionally I appreciate the MagSafe compatibility and closed bottom lip 😉 my only criticism is the random numbers branded on the case, other than that I’m excited for it to arrive. Anyone here have experience trying a grams28 case?
